Over more than 30 years, we have worked with multiple landscape architects across several states…read more Our recent experience with Eli is, without question, the best and most satisfying. We recently moved into a retirement community and the landscaping around our cottage was pretty scraggly. We decided to wait a year to see how it looked in all seasons. Unimpressed after that time, and at the recommendation of neighbors, we contacted Eli for suggestions on low-maintenance native plants that are drought tolerant, deer resistant, low maintenance and pollinators. That's a long list, but Eli put together a proposal that met all of our requirements. Based on earlier experiences with other landscape architects, we wanted to avoid over-planting, but Eli anticipated that and his selection of both appropriate quantity, and size-specific cultivars will ensure that our new plantings won't overgrow their bed-spaces. When he arrived to begin work, we were delighted with the quality of the plants that were on his truck. All were robust, full, and shapely (especially a Weeping Redbud that is a focal point in our front yard). He and a single helper meticulously cleaned and prepared beds, amended soil (as appropriate) and carefully planted everything. They re-used the best specimens of our existing plants, effectively integrating everything into a consistent and coherent whole. In addition to his labor, Eli also provided a running commentary on plant selection and care. He took great pains to protect our new tree from potential deer damage (a major problem in our area) and provided recommendations on plant care through next year. As to value for price, I feel we have gotten our money's worth and more. Highest possible recommendation.

Instead he designed a simple front yard that provided a lovely first view and a small, ready-to-plant bed along the deck so that the new owners could plant whatever flowers they wished as soon as they moved in. Throughout the process, Eli kept me informed of decisions, costs, and timelines. I enthusiastically recommend HIllside Gardening to Rockbridge County residents.

It's pretty hard to find someone who will even come to your house when they say they will and do a standard and professional job, but the best thing about Scott Britt (the main guy) is that he immediately understands whatever aesthetic vision you have and executes it beautifully. How rare is that? An example: we keep honeybees and a big swath of our backyard is maintained as a wild meadow, a bee sanctuary full of native blooming plants that the bees love. BUT. It kind of looks crazy and overgrown (if you didn't know that it was a bee meadow). I asked Scott to cut a walkway through the meadow and sort of gestured "from here to here", and when I came back he had crafted a delicately curving pathway that took into account the curve of the land and how it rose and fell and wrapped around to the more genteel part of the property perfectly. Without me even really asking, he knew exactly what I wanted. And that kind of thing happens all the time with him. Well priced, professional service with an almost uncanny attention to the potential loveliness in a space? Yes. Please. Better than a big company any day.
